My room looks like it was designed by a professional decorator.
The shelving has clean lines, bright and the hardware is simple and elegant. Easy to install with template.

The shelf was very nice and sleek in its design. It was very easy to install, with easy-to-understand instructions and a mounting template. We've had it up for a week now and it looks great.

I found this product sturdy, high quality, easy to mount and very versatile in style. It can go with a more modern, minimalist look, as well as a more traditional or even country style.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by Whitney Fantastic, Super-Easy to Hang
I purchased three three-foot shelves to run along the top of a wide closet. They hold my book collection beautifully - very sturdy design and solid materials. They come with cardboard strips that match the size of the shelves, with markers for where the holes need to go - so I just used push-pins and a level to get the cardboard straight, drill my holes, and voila! Easy cheesy.
They look amazing. Very pleased.

Rated 1 out of 5Â by Callahandyman Most Difficult to Install
These are handsome shelves, but extremely difficult to install. The mounting hardware is unforgiving. If your holes are a millimeter off, the shelves won't fit onto the posts, and there is absolutely no slack or play to adjust them. I had to re-drill the shelf holes with a wider bit so the shelves would fit. Also, the hardware includes only screws for drywall installation. Because I had a masonry wall, I had to buy a new set of screws and mollies.

Rated 4 out of 5Â by jael11 Great but wish the hardware was color coded
I like this shelf. I placed it in a small bathroom, high, so it could hold supplies. Easy to put up. The only suggestion is that I would like the hardware that shows (the bracket) to be color coordinated. I purchased the white and since the shelf will mostly be seen from the bottom, would like the hardware to "blend in". I decided to spray paint the hardware and it looks good, but it is an extra step. Generally I've found the items sold at the Container Store to be excellent quality. I have two elfa closets and lots of other good stuff from the CS.

Rated 4 out of 5Â by containitbetter It really is espresso
An earlier reviewer said that this shelf is more of a dark cherry wood tone than espresso. I have several of these espresso profile shelves, purchased more than a year ago, and they are, in fact, a dark cherry wood tone, which is what I wanted and expected in this shelf. Alas, the shelf I just purchased is the espresso/black that the earlier reviewer was looking for, not the cherry wood tone that would match my existing shelves. Can't please everyone, I guess. That said, these shelves are great. Easy to install and hold up well. But I will probably return this one because it doesn't match the others.

Even the employee helping me with my store pick-up agreed (and had heard before) that these espresso shelves were not really espresso. They look more like cherry wood.
Do not buy if truly looking for espresso finish.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by BusyInCaryNC Great Shelves
These were a great buy. Affordable, sturdy, well-made and easy to put up. I purchased 3 shelves and put them all up in less than an hour. A tip - tape the template to the wall with scotch or paitner's tape and level it - then drill into the wall. It saves a lot of time. The only drawback to them is that I was not able to adjust where the shelf fasteners hit the wall so I only got 1 bracket into a stud for each shelf. I had to use the drawall hangers for the others.

Rated 2 out of 5Â by Orvez Good for light objects.
Wasn't hard to install. I mounted the 24" shelfs on stud locations 16" apart. We put up two brass statues weighing about 20 lbs. They looked great for about two weeks, until the braces below the screws
compressed the dry wall and the shelves tilted downward. I solved this by putting spacers into the drywall. Great for a little while, until the actual rods supporting the shelves bent under the weight. As I said before, if you are storing anything heavy, stick with the old fashion
shelving brackets.

Rated 2 out of 5Â by lfs142 Difficult to install
The profile shelves look exactly as I wanted, but as someone who has installed many, many shelves, etc over the years, I found these to have absolutely no room for maneuvering the mounting hardware. Since the drilling and the drywall are not precise to the 32nd of an inch I had to really bully the shelves into place, and found the mounting process very time consuming and frustrating, although they do look nice once up, the installation process was not user friendly!

Rated 5 out of 5Â by Anxious Great for CDs, DVDs
I use these shelves for CDs and DVDs, which allowed me to eliminate some bulky storage shelves in a small room. I have them wrapped around the room up high and they look great. I must comment that they are only 5 1/2" deep, not 5 3/4" like the description said. This can matter! In this case, they worked great, just fitting the width of the items. Use the templates for installation- and I replaced the squeeze-push type of dry-wall mollies with the cork kind (just a preference). It comes with wood screws and the dry-wall screws, both. Love them!

This shelf was so easy to install and it looks beautiful! Just make sure you use the template and a drill - once you've followed the set-up instructions, all it takes is screwing in the posts and sliding the shelf on. Very sturdy and great to look at!

Rated 5 out of 5Â by missduckie Love these shelves!
I purchased two of these profile shelves for the office. They look fantastic! Clean and simple. The shelves only come out 5", the perfect depth to display frames and other tchotchkes without seeming overbearing.
The installation process took a little while. The hardware is a bar that sticks out, and limits the ability to use certain tools (like a drill, if you don't have an extender for the bit). Other than that, it went up easily and I love having them.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by SlimCharly Great alternative to end table or nightstand
We floated one of these on the wall next to our sofa in a small sitting room. It provided just enough surface for a phone, the TV/cable remotes, and a beverage, in a space that was so narrow that we could not find a end table with those dimensions. And we slid a narrow magazine rack underneath it between the end of the sofa and the wall. Voila! Floating end table. Easy to install, too.

I travel a lot and pick up many different art pieces. I have trouble displaying them because I like to scatter them around. Bookshelves are nice, but look cluttered after a while. The Profile shelves are the perfect solution of minimal wall space. They are rich in color and have clean lines. My displays can get grouped on walls and the beautiful design never looks cluttered. They are durable and easy to install. I have traveled with them many places and they have weathered all the moves. Excellent value and I plan to purchase more.

These shelves are not designed to hold books as they are not very deep. We would recommend an alternate solution, possibly the mantel shelves. Again, the amount of weight that can be put on the shelf depends on the proper installation.

I do not know the weight limit, but I would not use them for very heavy books; I think light paperbacks would be fine. They are not very deep, about the depth the boxes that game console games and software are packaged in; they are too shallow for a typical hard-cover book. I use them for my son's video games, framed photos, various knick-knacks, light-weight office supplies (stapler, pencil cups, etc.)

The Profile Shelves are quite narrow at 5 3/4 inches in width, and have an estimated weight limit of 6-8 pounds. Given the weight of the plant, its container and any water weight, we do not reccommend putting plants on them.
